Iguazu Falls - World's most spectacular waterfalls!


Below is a panoramic view of the waterfalls as you walk along a path on the Brazilian side



In the middle of the shoe horn is the "garganta del diablo" (in English, the devil's throat) on a normal day. This picture was taken from a postcard. Note the nice viewing platform they built for getting a great panoramic view of the falls as they wrap around you











See ...... this is what the effects of El Nino look like. This is the exact same viewing platform as above. It was the third highest water period in history at Iguazu. Much of northern Argentina was also underwater. The majority of the paths - just like this one - along the Iguazu trails were shut down since water was flowing over them.
